WOODZ Archive.1 Release Kicks Off 17-City World Tour; Australia Visit Confirmed

Singer WOODZ (Jo Seung-yeon) announced a large-scale world tour to meet global fans in person, timed with the release of his first full-length studio album Archive. 1. EDAM Entertainment said on March 3 via its official channels that the 'WOODZ 2026 WORLD TOUR Archive. 1' would begin and released a poster. The tour will open on March 14–15 in Incheon and travel through 17 cities, starting in Incheon and proceeding to Osaka, Tokyo, Nagoya, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Manila, Jakarta, Bangkok, Taipei, Berlin, London, Frankfurt, Paris, Melbourne, and Sydney. Additional cities and shows will be announced later. The poster features a black background with red typography, and WOODZ’s expressionless face paired with a white hood and long white cords creates a dreamy atmosphere. This image hints at the tour’s mood and builds anticipation for the diverse stages to come. The tour is especially meaningful as WOODZ returns about two years and two months after his first world tour in 2023, 'OO-LI(우리)' and an encore tour, and it comes right after the release of his first studio album. WOODZ is set to reconnect with global fans through an expanded musical universe and a more varied stage. Earlier, his solo concert '2025 WOODZ PREVIEW CONCERT : index_00' at Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Seoul in November 2025 sold out, underscoring his strong ticket power. A pre-release track will be released on February 12 on music platforms, and Archive. 1 will be released on March 4. Foreign fans have also reacted enthusiastically to the announcement, and Australia’s first show has been confirmed with Melbourne on June 19 and Sydney on June 21, drawing emotional responses from local fans. The 'AND MORE' caption on the poster is seen as a sign that additional cities may be announced. This tour is expected to be a key opportunity to hear and see WOODZ’s new musical world on a global stage.
